 Another Florida land swindle has come to light. St. Andrews was pie tured as a beautiful and healthful place, full of fruit-a land of milk and honey. It is nothing more than sand and swamp.

 The alleged threat of the Chicago insurance companies to withdraw their risks in case of Socialist cleo ton success was childish Tn the ex treme. The fact is, if Chicago 1 should come under Socialist control, the insurance companies would be forced to retire from business, for under Socialism the State or muni- cipality would assume the functions of insurance companies, and the people would not be compelled to pay high premiums in order that a few high-salarled officers should live in luxury.
